P: Generated images violate user guidelines

 

So as you can see, it's a PG-13 relatively inoffensive image of a woman in a bunny outfit. The top worked fine, and I was able to complete the top ear, which is cool. When I tried to extend the bottom with generative fill, though, I got this warning. They're just a pair of legs wearing stockings, and I wanted to extend it.

It feels like a false flag - though I could be wrong? I find myself thinking it would do the same for women in swimsuits.

Figured I'd share here.

Dear Adobe Photoshop Team and Community,

I hope this post finds you well. I am writing to express my disappointment and concern regarding the limitations of Generative AI Fill tool in handling images featuring the nude figure. As an artist who frequently utilizes Adobe Photoshop for creating art that revolves around the human form in non-sexual contexts, I find the current restrictions to be restrictive and counterproductive.

Artistic expression has long been a fundamental aspect of human culture, and the depiction of the human body is a significant element of that expression. It is disheartening to discover that the Generative AI Fill tool, a powerful feature in Photoshop, excludes images of the nude figure based on the current guidelines.

I firmly believe that nudity in art is not inherently inappropriate. In fact, the human body has been a subject of artistic exploration for centuries, contributing to the rich tapestry of our cultural heritage. While I understand the importance of implementing guidelines to ensure responsible use, the aggressive exclusion of images featuring the nude form feels like an unnecessary restriction on artistic freedom.

Specifically, I am concerned about the impact of these restrictions on the representation of women's bodies. It is crucial to recognize that artistic depictions of the female body can go beyond mere objectification and explore themes of empowerment, vulnerability, and self-expression. By enforcing stringent guidelines that limit the use of the Generative AI Fill tool for such content, Adobe Photoshop inadvertently contributes to the ongoing censorship of women's bodies in art.

I urge you to reconsider these guidelines and to develop a more nuanced approach that respects the diversity of artistic expression. Allowing artists to use the Generative AI Fill tool for their non-sexual, artistic explorations of the human form, including nudity, would be a step towards fostering a creative environment that values freedom of expression.

Art has the power to challenge societal norms, spark conversations, and promote understanding. By addressing these concerns, Adobe Photoshop can contribute to a more inclusive and supportive environment for artists working with diverse subject matter, including the depiction of the human body.

Thank you for taking the time to consider my perspective. I look forward to seeing positive changes that reflect a commitment to supporting the artistic community.

I wanted to put a car I photograph onto the background of a drag strip.
So I entered "drag strip" for the prompt. 
I got the indication that there was a problem with the prompt and was re-directed to the "Guidelines." 
It would appear that Adobe's AI has some sort of dirty mind. 
A "drag strip" is not something filthy. It is a place where cars go to race. 
Reported this bug, and Adobe just closed out the report.

@gascolator totally agree - it might be flagging "Strip" - report it via the violation pop up to help - that is the proper place to note issues with false flags.

In the meantime, get creative like "straight race track" or something else.

Dear Community,

On November 7th, 2023, the Firefly for Photoshop service was updated and improved for this issue. You should encounter fewer guideline errors when working on or near skin-tone areas that do not violate the community guidelines.

While the improvement is a big step in the right direction, we are continuing to explore new ways to minimize false-positives. Please continue to give us feedback on this new forum thread and also report false violation errors in the application.
Thank you for your patience with the overly-aggressive image violation errors. We recognized there was a bug where images that did not violate our community guidelines were being falsely flagged as such and have been working on this resolution.

 

Again - thank you.

Well you enjoy your prompts and fun.  As I said, there are many AI programs that are far more advanced than this attempt and I'm using those to further my creativity.  Thanks for your input, there is no further need for discussion

@kawaki There is nothing sanctimonious about this and thats my point - Adobe isn't restricting beyond this list and it's based on prompts.

 

The AI is not giving a violation because of YOUR content.

 

It's based on prompts that violate this list. If you get an error and have not asked for anything remotely close to this, then report it for review and try again. As users have shown time and time again on this thread, it is possible to work with nudity, etc. and use Generative Fill - if you write effective prompts.

 

It's called Machine "Learning" - the AI is improving with each reported error and will continue to improve with participation.

This is your sanctimonious answer.  I don't think anyone here wants to cross the line of your good taste but rather want and need artistic freedom.  Yes there are other programs to use that are far more AI advanced than Adobe and will be used.
